Nanoq artic Museum

The fourth day of our staying in Pietarsaari, we went to the Arctic Museum Nanoq which was situated in Fäboda. It was created between years 1956 and 1983 by a man called Pentti Kronqvist who had participated in several journeys and expeditions to the Arctic.

Nowadays, it is a very popular museum as it gets over 10,000 visitors from all over the world every year. It is very special because it shows the life and culture from the Arctic which is something very unusual for someone from a Mediterranean country as it is Spain.

Although the freezing weather we had that day, it really worth it.
